But the poster has, it is you who is showing a lack of understanding of those words and is trying to make a case for works based salvvation and failing.It would be nice if you actually addressed what Jesus said.

NO, protestants say faith ALONE. Jesus nor the bible ever teach that.But the poster has, it is you who is showing a lack of understanding of those words and is trying to make a case for works based salvvation and failing.
NO, protestants say faith ALONE. Jesus nor the bible ever teach that.
Jesus says:
Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—as her great love has shown.
the bible also states that greater than faith is love.
the only love one has, without faith in Him, is the love of this world.NO, protestants say faith ALONE. Jesus nor the bible ever teach that.

agreed. faith without love is a noisy gong. as the bible states.the only love one has, without faith in Him, is the love of this world.
Not sure what post you are referring to but the only posts I have posted were Jesus' own words.The more I read of rc' replies, the more I need a barf bag. Can't get any more blasphemous than claiming one's institution is god.
you quoted post 405. I never said you didn't quote Jesus' words. But Jesus also quoted verse 50, which you keep bypassing so as not to have to acknowledge that man has no power to save himself. When Jesus said HE was the only way to God. His statement excludes human works.Not sure what post you are referring to but the only posts I have posted were Jesus' own words.
No it is RCs who always use the word alone, they are obsessed with it.NO, protestants say faith ALONE. Jesus nor the bible ever teach that.

Jesus is NOT talking about your evil institution.NO, protestants say faith ALONE. Jesus nor the bible ever teach that.

and what is love without faith in Him?agreed. faith without love is a noisy gong. as the bible states.
Don't leave verse 50 out of the story, for it is THE main point.the verse illustrates her love and repetance. It was not fatih ALONE.
Jesus' words:
“Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give me any water for my feet, but she wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. 45 You did not give me a kiss, but this woman, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing my feet. 46 You did not put oil on my head, but she has poured perfume on my feet. 47 Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—as her great love has shown. But whoever has been forgiven little loves little.”
Faith is not ALONE.
Yeah, but when it conflicts with your group's theology...Don't leave verse 50 out of the story, for it is THE main point.
Way to go to conflate the cause with the effects. "He just won the highest prize in the lottery—as his happy demeanor shows". She was not forgiven because she loved. She loved because she was forgiven, which is implied by the following sentence: "But whoever has been forgiven little loves little."NO, protestants say faith ALONE. Jesus nor the bible ever teach that.
Jesus says:

We are not saved because we are loving and good. We have been saved despite being ungodly and dead in trespasses. Love is the fruit of salvation. Never its cause.the bible also states that greater than faith is love. Faith is never ALONE.
Will you be saved by faith without love? Will you be saved without obedience to Gods commandments? Will you be saved by without repentance and living a virtuous life?Way to go to conflate the cause with the effects. "He just won the highest prize in the lottery—as his happy demeanor shows". She was not forgiven because she loved. She loved because she was forgiven, which is implied by the following sentence: "But whoever has been forgiven little loves little."

I didn't. You make it the main point because of your tradition. I say faith, love, repentance, and obedience to the ten commandments.Don't leave verse 50 out of the story, for it is THE main point.
And you totally disregard v. 50. And that is why your theology is a mess. You leave out what doesn't fit the rcc narative!I didn't. You make it the main point because of your tradition. I say faith, love, repentance, and obedience to the ten commandments.
You disregarded everything before v. 50.And you totally disregard v. 50. And that is why your theology is a mess. You leave out what doesn't fit the rcc narative
No I didn't. V 50 sums up the previous verses.You disregarded everything before v. 50.
